[Bug 446480] Re: karmic kernel configuration gotchas...

[Leann Ogasawara]

Hi Daniel,

Thanks for the config review.  The two config options you'd specifically
pointed out in comment #1 are currently enabled in the actively
developed Maverick kernel:

ogasawara at emiko:~/ubuntu-maverick/debian.master/config$ grep -rn "X86_MCE=" *
config.common.ubuntu:4686:CONFIG_X86_MCE=y

ogasawara at emiko:~/ubuntu-maverick/debian.master/config$ grep -rn "X86_PAT" *
config.common.ubuntu:4698:CONFIG_X86_PAT=y

Seeing as this was a config evaluation targeted for Karmic, and we're
now actively focusing on Maverick, it seems this review might actually
be a bit dated now.  Additionally, we typically require a justification
for each config change, much like you did for justifying the changes for
X86_MCE and X86_PAT in comments #2 and #3.  If any changes are still
critically important to you, could you re-evaluate for Maverick, provide
a proper justification, and file them as separate bugs?  I suspect this
original request for config changes will not qualify for SRU for Karmic
and Lucid.  Note that we prefer to make config changes early in the dev
cycle (ie right now) to get as much testing as possible and avoid
potential for regressions later on.  I'm also going to remove this from
the the Maverick config blueprint for the time being.  Thanks.
